Perl::Critic::Policy::InputOutput::ProhibitReadlineInForUser(Contributed Perl DocumPerl::Critic::Policy::InputOutput::ProhibitReadlineInForLoop(3)NAMEPerl::Critic::Policy::InputOutput::ProhibitReadlineInForLoop - Write "while( $line = <> ){...}" instead of "for(<>){...}".AFFILIATIONThis Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.DESCRIPTIONUsing the readline operator in a "for" or "foreach" loop is very slow. The iteration list of the loop creates a list context, which causes the readline operator to read the entire input stream before iteration even starts. Instead, just use a "while" loop, which only reads one line at a time. for my $line ( <$file_handle> ){ do_something($line) } #not ok while ( my $line = <$file_handle> ){ do_something($line) } #okCONFIGURATIONThis Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.AUTHORJeffrey Ryan Thalhammer <jeff@imaginative-software.com>COPYRIGHTCopyright (c) 2005-2011 Imaginative Software Systems.
